Bid and contract opportunities for Pasadena Chamber members-get on the LA County procurement lists

The Pasadena Chamber provides information on opportunities for our members to do business. As we are aware of them, we post bid and contract opportunities in the e-Bulletin.

If you are looking for a vendor for a project, product or service, we would be happy to alert your fellow Pasadena Chamber members to the opportunity. Simply email the info with a contact link to paul@pasadena-chamber.org and we will include it in our communications to the members.

Thank you to Art Center, Huntington Hospital, Pasadena City College, the City of Pasadena, Metropolitan Water District, Jet propulsion laboratory and Caltech for taking part in ACCESS: Opportunity the Pasadena Chamber procurement forum on Thursday, March 13th. Thanks also to the PCC Small Business Development Center for hosting and co-sponsoring the event. If you missed hearing how to work with our large business members at the event, you can watch it here:http://www.pasadena-chamber.org/business/chamber-webinar.

Attention Chamber of Commerce Members:  Are you interested in doing business with the County of Los Angeles?  Did you know that County certified Local Small Businesses are eligible for an 8% bid price preference and prompt payment on their invoices? You may be eligible for certification in the County’s Local Small Business Enterprise (Local SBE) program and we just made it easier to do so by streamlining the requirements. 

The criteria to become a Local SBE is that you must: 1) be certified by the State of California DGS as a small business; 2) have your principal place of business located in the County for at least the past 12 months, and 3) be a registered vendor with the County.

If you are already a registered vendor with the County, a business is required to update their online County vendor profile with their State small business certification and submit only ONE document for County verification; i.e., a "Principal Place of Business Attestation". The Attestation may be found online at the Office of Small Business website: http://osb.lacounty.gov/PDFs/PRINCIPAL_PLACE_OF_BUSINESS_ATTESTATION.pdf

If you are not yet a registered vendor with the County, you must first register online and then update your profile.
